Continuing to “investigate” (aka drink prosecco and Google shit) the word croatoan the ladies uncover two more mysterious stories related to the word: the disappearance of Amelia Earhart and the disappearance of Ambrose Bierce.

Ambrose Bierce, well-known horror writer, disappeared in 1914 after sending mysterious notes to friends and family. Did Ambrose decide to end his own life, or did something supernatural happen?

We all know the story of famed aviator Amelia Earhart, but we’re betting you don’t know how her mysterious disappearance (which has yet to be solved) is connected to croatoan…

Join the Lady Dicks this week as we have some laughs and talk about some unsolved mysteries.
